Additionally, as Clark rises to break more records, the media seems to inch closer to her every small movement.
She recently found herself in the spotlight for her candid assessment of the WNBA referees during a game against the Seattle Storm. After a frustrating encounter with the officials in the third quarter, Clark was caught on microphone expressing her honest opinion, describing the referees as "awful" and implying their officiating was as bad as it gets.
